General operation speed of HTC S730

I think the operation speed of the HTC S730 is not a disaster, but just annoying. Basic things like opening the contacts or the Commanager etc. take FAR too long. I always use FreeRAM and other tools, keeping the free RAM at a maximum. But still... the speed is really annoying.
Are there any tweaks for a general faster reacting HTC S730? I mean it got 400MHZ!!!IT's supposed to be faster than that. I mean even opnening the slider needs like 3 seconds to adjust the screen. How is this possible with a Smartphone of 400MHZ. My stupid (old) Samsung slider reacts in 0.3 seconds after opening the slider, it got 15MHZ.
I MEAN PEOPLE, WTF
Please help

mm
I think it performs ok. This is my first device running any form of mobile windows so i dont have much to compare to. But all over im happy with it.
The one thing that does anoy me is the quality of the camera. I really thought the 2mp camera would be better. If you sneeze while taking a picture its all one big blur. People have to stand 100% still. Thank fook i didnt get it for the camera, hehehe

Waiting 3 seconds to adjust the screen after opening qwerty keyboard is ok. Have you ever had any other smartphone? On the Vox (S710) it take much longer (it's depending on what programs are running but basically it's slower).
I have used Vox for some time and the processor was really slow... rendering pages in IE, painting system graphics on lanscape was slow... I really think the 400 MHz makes Wings way faster.
BTW: Here's my little comparison benchmark.

[APP] Minfreemem settings

I have looked around to see if there were any other substantial methods to adjust the way memory was dealt with in the galaxy S. After using the phone throughout the day I do notice it bogging down to a crawl, even to open the messaging app. Now I did read in the development section about the recompiled libdvm.so for froyo. But I'm not getting ahead of myself since the file is still in testing. For immediate results I've been tinkering with Minfreemem.
If you don't know what it is, here's a run down by android central.
http://www.androidcentral.com/fine-tuning-minfree-settings-improving-androids-multi-tasking
It adjusts the way android allocates ram to specific applications running or in background. Now other forums have some information about settings and which is best, but I havent dug up much info for the galaxy. The app itself has presets and those work well. The only thing that bothers me is the presets are a bit outdated and not configured for any specific phone in mind. The screenshot below is just an example of default settings on a phone running HTC sense. My default settings running Quantium 2.7 rom was different.

After messing around for a while and looking up if anyone was using "similar apps" for the nexus S so i can test out their settings. I came only to some japanese site where the translation didnt work out very well...
So here is my settings I been using for an hour, notice the presets do show a lot of empty ram "96" to speed things up without bugging down. I believe that unused ram is wasted ram.
Foreground: 14
Visible: 28
Secondary: 32
Hidden: 32
Content provider: 64
Empty app: 32
with these settings I was able to toggle back and forth from apps without reloading. Especially the gallery, that tends to slow down quite often. Opening new apps was smooth and switching back to threads and contact lists were good as well.
I want to quote the article at android central
I want to stress -- there is nothing wrong with the way Android handles this out of the box. It's efficient, works well every time, and keeps things stable. It's our meddling and the need for instant gratification that is the real issue. Waiting .3 seconds longer never killed anyone. But I'm just as guilty as anyone else, and want immediate results too, so let's do it!
If you have anything to contribute thats "informational" please do.

[Q] Mystery "streaming media" app using data

Hey all,
Droid 3 using Minimoto 1.7 (Safestrap install) here. I've been using the phone as normal for almost a year before this happened -
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Can anyone help me figure out what this "streaming media" app is? I was using the internet as normal one day and suddenly I noticed it had gulped 100MB in a very short time. At that point I thought it might have been the Youtube app (which Advanced Task Killer reported was running in the background) streaming crap so I deinstalled the app (also turned off 'allow apps from unknown sources'), rebooted the phone, and very carefully browsed for a bit while checking the data usage frequently. Suddenly it had taken another 130 MB.
I only have 500MB per month which is my only non-work internet access and I watch it like a hawk. This "thing" has now eaten half of that. Extremely annoyed!
Right now the only thing I have installed that might be considered "streaming media" is Soundcloud, which I haven't even run in a couple months. I'm getting worried about malware, etc. as I have no idea what this is nor what it's doing. I've never seen that show up in the data logger before. BTW the data logging app is My Data Manager but I have confirmed the extra data use appears on my bill, i.e. it is 'real' data and not just a bug in the app. I have "auto update apps" turned off in the Play Store and the "system updates" screen comes up blank (didn't think Minimoto would 'pull in' updates anyway?)
Also, I put my SIM card back in my old phone (HTC Dream running Android 1.5) and it works just as it always did with no unexplained data. At this point I don't want to get the Droid online at all for fear that it would gobble up the rest of my data and go over. (I thought of running something like Avast or Malwarebytes but it seems they are only legitimately available from the play store which means the phone must be online - argh!)
Any help appreciated - thanks in advance!

Help: Verizon 5.1: Phone Getting Hot & Contacts App Slow

Hey guys,
I received the Lollipop 5.1 OTA last week and upgraded from 5.0. Since then, my phone has been regularly getting very warm to the touch, much hotter than it ever has. I installed GSam to regulate the temp and it's typically around 112-113 degrees Fahrenheit. I'm not sure what temp it ran at before, but was definitely cooler as it was never noticeable.
I also noticed that the Contacts app is really slow. It takes a while to load. I believe this may also be affecting the Phone app and [Google] Messenger app. They seem to be running slowly as well. Between the heat and the slow apps, it is eating my battery up quickly. I'm getting closer to half a day of life, whereas before it was closer to a full day. Android Core Apps is eating up a good portion of the battery and is typically towards the top of the list. Previously, Screen & Android OS were the biggest culprits.
I tried to do some research on this issue and although I couldn't find too much information, I did read that this could be related to having too many "Google Contacts" and the phone is always trying to sync. I'm not sure if this is an issue newly introduced in 5.1, but I never had problems before. I do have a lot of contacts, as my company runs on Google Apps and I have all of my personal contacts stored in Google Contacts.
I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to rectify these problems. I've cleared the phone's Cache through recovery and cleared the Cache of the Contacts app. I realize that a hard reset may be my best option, but I'd rather not lose all of my progress in AdVenture Capitalist!
Thanks, guys. Looking forward to thoughts.

Here's some screenshots of battery info. Android Core Apps is killing my batt.

How can I disappear the High Performace Mode icon from the notification bar?

Hi guys! I am using my phone with high performance mode enabled. I don't want to turn this off.
But because of this, a battery icon with speedometer is constantly visible in the notification bar.
How can I disable this?
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Galaxy Store, Good Lock family of apps, Quickstar. Clean up that horrible bright white too.

It's works! Thank you very much!

You're welcome. It's a cool apk that uses almost no power.
This is one reason you buy Samsung, customization. Hundreds of free themes and icon packs too. The stock launcher is faster, more stable and efficient than any of the 3rd party ones... plus very customizable.
iPhones are such plain Jane's

Yes, you are right. Anyway, I solve most of the customization with gravitybox and firefds modules, since I have root.
A little plus information for EU users: The Good Luck app is not available in the Galaxy Store due to region restrictions.
If you still install the apk from elsewhere (eg. apkmirror), it will display an error message after start.
The solution: install a free vpn app (eg. protonvpn), remove the sim card from your phone, force shutdown and delete data + clear cache in the galaxy store app (+ and if you have already installed it in the Good Luck app), set up a vpn connection via wifi to make the connection target US.
Launch the Galaxy Store and now you can find Good Luck and use it!
